Classic Car Overview
The car achieved legendary automotive status due to its high-performance flagship trim, the VR-4, which earned the title of 1996 Japan Car of the Year.
The Legnum VR-4: A Grown-Up Evo
Often referred to by automotive enthusiasts as a more luxurious, grown-up sibling to the Lancer Evolution, the Legnum VR-4 paired raw rally-bred technology with the practicality of a 5-door estate.
- The Engine: Powered by the 6A13TT, a 2.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine.
- The power: It officially produced 276 horsepower (280 PS) to comply with the Japanese gentlemens agreement of the era, though true output was often higher.
- Drivetrain: Full-time All-Wheel Drive (AWD), paired with either a 5-speed manual or a Porsche-inspired 5-speed INVECS-II semi-automatic transmission.
- Active Yaw Control (AYC): Borrowed from Mitsubishis rally engineering, the top-tier Type-S models featured a torque-vectoring rear differential that electronically transferred power to individual wheels to eliminate understeer through corners.
